Product Description
The Simpson HB214-2 Top Flange Hanger Heavy Beam Double 2x14 is a professional-grade structural connector engineered to support double 2x14 beam configurations in both solid sawn lumber and engineered wood product applications. Built for medium to high load demands, this top flange hanger delivers a clean, secure top-chord bearing connection while actively preventing joist rotation under load - making it a reliable choice for heavy beam framing where structural integrity cannot be compromised.
Key Features
- Top-Flange Design - Attaches directly to the top chord of the supporting member, allowing for a flush, accessible installation that keeps the structural connection tight and properly aligned.
- Full-Height Joist Flange - Captures the top chord of the joist to prevent rotation under load, maintaining long-term stability and structural integrity throughout the life of the assembly.
- One-Piece Construction - Eliminates the need for welded components, reducing installation complexity and providing a cost-effective solution for heavy beam connections without sacrificing load performance.
- 10 Gauge Steel with Galvanized Finish - Heavy-gauge steel construction provides the strength required for medium to high load applications, while the galvanized finish adds corrosion resistance for lasting durability.
- Broad Application Compatibility - Approved for solid sawn lumber and engineered wood product beam connections, giving contractors and builders flexibility across a wide range of heavy structural framing projects.
Why This Product
- Built for Heavy-Duty Double Beam Support - Specifically designed for double 2x14 beam configurations, this hanger addresses high-load structural framing needs that lighter-duty hangers are not rated to handle.
- Rotation Prevention Built In - The full-height joist flange actively captures the top chord of the joist, a critical feature for top-chord bearing installations where beam movement or rotation could compromise structural performance.
- Versatile Across Common Beam Materials - Compatible with both solid sawn lumber and engineered wood products, this hanger fits naturally into a wide variety of residential and commercial framing systems without requiring special adaptation.
- American-Made Simpson Quality - Produced in the United States from 10 gauge galvanized steel, this connector reflects Simpson's commitment to consistent material standards and dependable performance in demanding structural applications.
